TECHNICAL MEETING The technical meeting will take place at 5pm on Thursday 25th January in Meeting Room 1 on the third floor at Plymouth Life Centre.
DIVE SHEETS Divers/Coaches are requested to submit dive sheets electronically, both for their own convenience and to minimize the chance of errors loading the data into the Recording program. Coaches may make bulk submission of dive sheets on behalf of their divers by using the program DiveSheets with which they will already be familiar. Alternatively, individual divers may submit their own dive sheets on-line. Please agree with your coach which method you should use. To submit your dive sheets on-line there are two options: Either visit: www.diverecorder.co.uk/onlinesheets and follow the instructions, or if you have an Android phone or tablet, you can get the ADiveSheets app from this page on the DiveRecorder website: www.diverecorder.co.uk/dive/android As soon as you complete either on-line submission method, you will see a success/failure message. If you experience problems and need assistance please contact Ann Barker [email protected]
Electronic submissions must be made by Midnight on Wednesday 24th January. You will be asked to sign hard copies of these sheets at the venue, available from the Recorders. If neither you nor your Coach are able to use the above electronic methods, you can submit a hard copy of your lists of dives to the Recorders. The deadline for manual dive sheets is at the Technical Meeting on 25th January.
REGISTRATION/MEMBERSHIP DEADLINE Divers should be registered with the ASA 60 days prior to the commencement of the National Event (“The Meet”) for which the diver is entering.

PHOTOGRAPHY POLICY British Swimming are well aware of the wide range of devices including mobile telephones which have photographic and filming capabilities. This enables the capture of both static and moving images. It should be acknowledged that the majority of images taken within a British Swimming setting are appropriate and taken in good faith. However, images of children and adults can be misused, and sharing images widely without consent may betray a confidence or identify of a child or adult, which could present a risk of harm to that individual if common sense procedures are not followed. Parents and carers of participants under the age of 18 who wish to take images are requested to focus on their own children as much as reasonably possible and to avoid including other children in images, particularly if those images are being shared with family and friends or through social media platforms. Whilst it is acknowledged that parents/carers wish to celebrate the achievements of their own children when taking part in aquatic events, it should be recognised and respected that other parents/carers may not wish for their child’s image to be taken and shared in this way. British Swimming encourage all spectators and participants at British Swimming events to make themselves familiar with the photography and filming arrangements for the event and be vigilant during that event. British Swimming is committed to ensuring that all children who participate in British Swimming activities are able to take part in an enjoyable, safe environment and be safeguarded from harm. If you have any child safeguarding concerns at the event, please contact an Event Officer immediately to disclose your concerns.
